Number of people adopted a mantee through Fia's foundation = 40
30% more are people adopted a manatee
Number of people adopted = 30% of 40 = (0.30)(40) = 12
People adopted a manatee this year = number of people + 30% of 40
People adopted a manatee this year = 40 + 12
People adopted a manatee this year = 52
Answer:
Between 1000 and 5000 snowboards will make the function AP(x) >0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x can only take possitive values, we have that AP(x) = P(x)/x > 0 if and only if P(x) > 0.
In order to find when P(x) > 0, we find the values from where it is 0 and then we use the Bolzano Theorem.
P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = -x²+10x - (4x+5) = -x²+6x - 5. the roots of P can be found using the quadratic formula:
Therefore, P(1) = P(5) = 0. Lets find intermediate values to apply Bolzano Theorem:
- P(0) = -5 < 0 ( P is negative in (-∞ , 1) )
- P(2) = -4+6*2-5 = 3 > 0 (P is positive in (1,5) )
- P(6) = -36+36-5 = -5 < 0 (P is negative in (5, +∞) )
The production levels that make AP(x) >0 are between 1000 and 5000 snowboards (because we take x by thousands)
For part A, The answer is that the car gets better gas mileage. We can see it from the graph that the number of gallons used is on the X axis, and the distance traveled using those number of gallons is on the Y axis. The easiest way to compare would be to look at the 1 gallon of gas. You can see that you can travel 25 miles on 1 gallon of gas. The truck on the other hand will get you 18 miles per gallon. Imagine putting 1 in for X, the Y value would be 18 if you did this. The graph just shows us a visual way of saying the same thing. To determine how much farther the car with a girl on 8 gallons of gas, you would just multiply 8 by 25 for the number of miles traveled by the car. You would multiply 8 by 18 to find the number of miles traveled for the truck. The answers are 200 miles for the car and 144 miles for the truck. 200-144=56 miles farther for the car.
